Risk Management

High-Risk Items

Risk Impact Probability Mitigation Owner
Scanner implementation takes longer than estimated High Medium Start early, parallel work on data format Dev Lead
Testing reveals fundamental design issues High Low Incremental testing, early validation QA Lead
Nmap integration more complex than expected Medium Medium Research early, prototype scanner Developer
Performance issues with large networks Medium Low Load testing in Phase 8 Developer
Security vulnerabilities discovered late High Low Security review in Phase 12 Security
Deployment scripts fail on various configs Medium Medium Test on multiple Proxmox versions DevOps

Mitigation Strategies

  1. Early Validation: Test critical components early (scanner, data format)
  2. Parallel Work: Database and data format can proceed in parallel
  3. Incremental Testing: Test each phase before moving to next
  4. Documentation As You Go: Update docs with each feature
  5. Security First: Include security considerations in every phase
